Distribution Process
After the emergency relief in Chennai and Cuddalore, we were getting help requests for various students from both Chennai and Cuddalore. Since it is not an emergency relief we took this as our second project as part of the flood relief. This project was executed under the leadership of our volunteers Bhaskar K (Villupuram/Pondy rural) and Rajesh (Chennai). Krishna Prasad (volunteer), helped in procuring the materials in wholesale price from Chennai.
As per our policy “100% to the beneficiary”, we took tremendous effort to make sure the raised funds must benefit the right students as per their needs.
Steps
- Identified the flood affected locations in Chennai and Cuddalore.
- Our volunteers, went in person to the locations and met every student / school / group.
- Collected the requirements in detail for each student.
- Verified the student’s living condition and their identity.
- Finalized the list of locations, students and the materials required.
- Purchased the materials from Parrys (Chennai) in wholesale.
- Transported the materials to different locations.
- Informed the students to gather in a school or a common place.
- Volunteers and friends went in person and distributed the materials.
- During distribution, we verified the student’s identity again.
